There's No Turning Back (Elara and Harvey) novel Chapter 80

Elara pressed the answer button. "Hello, Mr. Snapp."

Her voice was distant and polite, stripping away any hint of late-night intimacy.

The man's deep, magnetic voice came through. "I saw the trending news."

Elara immediately asked, "How is Dr. Snapp?"

"He's asleep."

Hearing that Tobias wasn't affected by the online rumors, Elara let out a quiet sigh of relief.

Theodore added, "I may have slipped him two sleeping pills to make sure he actually got some rest."

Elara was baffled by this.

She hesitated before asking cautiously, "Was he very angry after reading the accusations online?"

"What made him shake with rage wasn't the cheating allegations—it was the fact that his past conflict with Harold Judd from four years ago was dragged up again.

"Now, everyone thinks he was just jealous of a rising talent and deliberately tried to suppress Harold."

After leaving Capitol University, guilt and unease had pushed Elara to block out anything related to her former school. Because of that, she had no idea what Tobias had gone through after she left.

"I personally know Harold Judd as well." Elara spoke up.

Harold was Rosalie's husband—she had seen him a few times at family gatherings.

He always wore thick black-rimmed glasses, had an average appearance, and dressed plainly. He wasn't talkative, but he was perceptive.

Harold was quick to read the room, and he was diligent enough that the elder members of the Fisher family never found fault with him.

Compared to Elara, who had the Jones family as her backing, Harold was truly from humble beginnings.

Born in a small, struggling town in the north, he clawed his way up through sheer determination. He got into Havenford University University, then pushed himself even harder to earn a spot in Capitol University's PhD program, eventually securing a teaching position there.

Rosalie was completely infatuated with what she called Harold's "intellectually sexy brain".
